If you are being to consider planing to buy a telescope for your first time observation, I do recommend that you should start with binocular because the mostly binoculars are not expensive but also it is portable, so you need to use with the night sky by a binocular before purchasing a telescope for more details or more faint objects to be seen.
Binocular – because for the starter, there are hundreds of beautiful sights in the night sky, binoculars have designations such from as 8 x 40, where 8 is the magnification and 40 is the diameter of each object lens in millimetres that “two small telescope” joined by a hinge to give a low-magnification view.
My first binocular was 10 x 50 to give me learn more for star hopping to target for the objects then second binocular 11×80 was purchased that give me more wide-view plus only one extra magnification, because it give me easy to find the objects by star hopping through that wide-view. Both binoculars that I still to use them today since my first observation night sky was in August 2000. Now I have got a telescope – Meade Lightbridge 16 inch for giving me to view more details and some faint objects too. (Mostly faint objects won’t be seen through by binoculars.)
